Devastation due to Japan's Earthquake and Tsunami

These are horrific pictures of the massive devastation due to Japan's Earthquake and Tsunami. This was Japan's most powerful earthquake to date and in the top 4 worldwide. The earthquake created tsunami waves of up to 10 meters (33 ft) that struck Japan, with smaller waves in many other countries.

The earthquake occurred in the western Pacific Ocean, 130 km (81 mi) east of Sendai, Honshu, Japan. Its epicenter was 373 km (232 mi) from Tokyo, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS/fotn.in). Multiple aftershocks were reported after the initial magnitude 9.0 quake at 14:46 local time.

Unlike other countries which had many hours' notice of a relatively small surge, a major tsunami struck Japan with only minutes' warning, leaving many people unable to escape.

According to Italy's National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology, the earthquake's enormous strength shifted the Earth's axis by 25 centimeters (9.8 in). This deviation led a number of small changes, including those to the length of a day and the tilt of the Earth. The speed of the Earth's rotation increased, shortening the day by 1.6 microseconds due to the redistribution of Earth's mass.

Not seen such vivid portrait of the horror scenes due to earthquakes and tsunami attacking a great nation with such ferocity and fury. No doubt the Japanese will rise as one man and brave Nature's furies with their innate willpower and dynamism, and sooner than most of us figure, reconstruct an even more landscape dotted with prosperity in all forms, wherever it was damaged or destroyed by nature.

IF MAN CONTINUES ON VIOLATING THE ORDER OF THE CREATOR, SUCH THINGS ARE BOUND TO HAPPEN. WE MUST RETURN TO OBEY ALMIGHTY'S ORDERS TO RESTORE ORDER IN THIS WORLD. MY SYMPATHY IS WITH ALL THE AFFECTED AND PRAYER TO GOD IS TO COMPENSATE US DIVINELY.

India should learn from Japan's Devastation and rethink about Nuclear Plants and 123 agreement. Nuclear Plants are not safe from Earthquake,Tsun ami, Terrorist attack etc. In an average entire European Countries banned the new installation of Nuclear Reactors apart from France.
For Example- Canada in 1993, Germany in 1988, Italy in 1978, South Africa in 1985, Switzerland in 1984, United Kingdom and Ireland in 1995 and United State in 1996 installed their last Nuclear Reactor. Even in France last reactor was installed in 1999 and now they are constructing one nuclear reactor at FLAMANVILLE and same with United State last one installed at 1996 and now they are constructing one reactor at Watts Bar, since they sees a potential business opportunity at India .

The worlds most polite and considerate nation,to the extent that while talking they speak in such a low tone that your ears do not feel aggression. May Allah help such a great Asian nation, best specimen of human diginity.
The world must come forwrad to help them besides their own extraodinary reselience.
